OneSource Virtual is a provider of Workday services, solutions, and products for over 850 customers around the world. Payroll, finance, benefits, and HR solutions, purpose-built for Workday technology and specially designed to give customers access to deeper data insights.
ADP was a full service (which I think OneSource Virtual also has) but we don't use it. we just have them complete the backend work after payroll is complete.
When we implemented in 2013, we evaluated several payroll partners. Due to proximity and the services they presented, they quickly floated to the top of the list.
I used ADP for a short time while we implemented Workday (payroll), and I can say it was not so user-friendly. Once we transitioned to Workday and brought [OneSource Virtual] onboard, life became much easier.
I like that OneSource Virtual has access to our database and can help us however it is needed. [Whereas] other companies we looked at do not touch our system.
When we were evaluating OneSource Virtual for Tax processing we also reviewed our options with ADP. We made the decision to go with OneSource Virtual because they offer the flexibility to be able to support our overall Workday payroll processes (and honestly the entire system) …
The support provided by [OneSource Virtual] has been superior to that of ADP. In addition, the partnership with Workday as their payroll and HR platform is superior to that of ADP.
We feel that we receive a much better "bang for our buck" with OneSource Virtual. They provide flexibility that we do not believe we would receive from the other vendor.

Chose OneSource Virtual
We used another vendor previously for the same exact services and moved to OneSource Virtual due to ongoing service issues. I was unable to get problems answered in a timely manner and there was no escalation path. I no longer have that issue. OneSource Virtual's solution …
The level of support and flexibility of OneSource Virtual is far superior to my experience with ADP. They are readily available to assist with troubleshooting as well as day-to-day needs. ADP was difficult to get in touch with and had a box product that required our business …
We were with an older version of ADP that was about to be discontinued. Our big struggle, quite frankly, was that we felt like a very small fish in a large pond. The customer service component was not to our satisfaction. We reviewed 18 different vendors prior to making a …
Prior to our implementation of Workday and use of OneSource Virtual, our fulfillment provider was using a very outdated system that could not handle complex things. We had a hard time with any projects, especially ones that required quick turnaround, and often had to customize …
We evaluated 1 other implementation partner, but there wasn't any comparison. OneSource Virtual made us very comfortable from the beginning, allowing us to interview members of their project team. They were also helpful in providing recommendations for other outside …
Without disclosing the other vendors we shopped out, OneSource Virtual was right in the middle of the pack for cost. What gave them the project was that they had a long history of success with implementations, as well as a large percent of all Workday implementations. Our HR …

Chose OneSource Virtual
We did not use OneSource Virtual to help us implement Workday. We used a competitor that did a fine job, but we quickly moved to OneSource Virtual post-implementation to take our tenant to the next level!
OSV uses tickets/cases for communication, which makes it easy to open and monitor the status of transactions. They are great at net pay processing and filing taxes. If things are not moving along, you can reach out to your Tax Specialist or Customer Success Manager, and they can help escalate concerns. It sounds like they are rearranging their tax filing department so they can facilitate quicker resolutions, so I hope that benefits their customers. They are also interested in reaching out and making things right for the customer. Their Knowledge Center online could use a re-vamp. The search function is not useful at all, and I have a difficult time finding forms such as ACH Reversal form, or the Stop Payment form.
[OneSource Virtual] offers an array of on-demand webinars
At the end of each quarter, [OneSource Virtual]'s tax and payroll team initiate a meeting with me to discuss the quarter's activities and hear any concerns I may have
I meet with my [OneSource Virtual] Success Manager once a year to touch base and discuss improvements to our services
We receive far too many emails from our cases. They send three just to start with.
Better knowledge of the tax deferrals due to Covid19.
A better reminder of when your contract will end. They spring it on you at the very last second and then you cannot look outside of OneSource Virtual because you need coverage.
Most of the time, we receive a response to a new ticket within a few hours. Occasionally, a ticket with the payroll tax team would fall through the cracks and take several days before it was acknowledged. This issue has gotten better since we had a meeting and discussed the expectations.
The level of support and flexibility of OneSource Virtual is far superior to my experience with ADP. They are readily available to assist with troubleshooting as well as day-to-day needs. ADP was difficult to get in touch with and had a box product that required our business to conform to instead of being able to flex to meet business needs. OneSource Virtual has a deeper platform than Paychex, however, the level of customer support is equal.
Leveraging OneSource Virtual's garnishment processing services reduced overheard and allowed me to repurpose a position I had in my department just for processing garnishments.
Not having to push tax files to the vendor is a huge time savings as well-we would spend all day producing files to push over to our previous vendor.
Ease of processing our Canadian payroll-we are done with payroll in 1 hour.
